The hazard
Certain motor homes equipped with slide-out rooms. The microprocessor that controls the slide-out operation generates a false situation, which tells the slide-out mechanism to operate. When this happens, a section of the motor home extends out by up to 30 inches. This can occur while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will add an external protection controlled by a manual command. In addition, an instruction describing how to deactivate the slide-out motor will be included in the notice to customers. This will eliminate the risk before the remedy is performed.
